OUR ALERT ARMY.
The Duty Uncle Sans Boys are Engaged
in on the Plains.

1
When we came to Fort Meade in the
Black Hills, we stopped quartero of q mile
away to look at it. Offa few wards = LARGE
negro soldier was pacing back and forth
with gun on his shoulder. We at first
supposed he was guarding something or
doing picket duty. A COW was feeding a
few yards away. She went up little fur
ther toward the hill and the trnsty de-
fender Of his country walked around her
and started her back, gently prodding her
with his bayonet as he did so. Then he
struck out new beat, still nearer the cow.
and again began his martial tread Evil
IDENTIFY he was herding one of the officers
cows. This was too much for Pinneo-he
had always been imbued with the idea of
the warlike character of the standing army
entertained by people who never saw much
of it,
Great Scott p' he said, as he got ont of
the wagon and danced around on the
ground. 81 thought he was doing picket
| duty-out guarding against a sudden at
tack from the Indians, out looking for the
enemy but I'll be hanged if he isn't out
herding a measly old red COW with only
one horn Great heavens and earth,
what a spectaclei What a use for the
! United States army Where's your for
eign nations? Bring 'em on, trot EN- out
fetch along England, France and Germany
and let EN- see the great standing army of
| this young giant of Republics out chasing
around with fixed bayonet after one poor,
consumptive cow over a hundred and
twenty-seven years old Now's the time
to drag in your hostile Governments. of
the Old World and let 'em tremble az
they gaze on Il niger soldier seven feet
high wearing the proud uniform of the
regular army and prodding a bay COW be-
hind and making her walk along down
where the grass is higher See him head
her off from that CORN. Great shades of
Washington, get onto the flank
movement he is making on heri
See him charge on her Note the eau
tious, cat-like tread with which he slips
up and jabs her with his bayonet Now's
the time to bring on your British lion,
We licked him twice; let him see what
we propose TO demolish him with againi
Let him see our army in rest and motion,
when it stops to scratch its head and when
it leads forlorn hope right up to a dark
red COW that is breathing hard and look
ing at cornfeld Bring Mexico and
Canada along, and let them take look,
and then notice 'em get white in the face
and grow small There, the COW is going
to make charge for the corn See her
lower her head-good gracious, see her
shake it at him and make a break for the
field See her run; see him advance on
the double-quick Notice the way he
pounds her along the side with the barrel
of his improved repeating-rife, which cost
the Government S37 She's going to beat
him, no-yes-no, he's ahead-see her
turn and run. Now let the nations of the
earth get to the front and feast their eyes
on the spectacle of the United States army
prodding light brindle COW at every
jump-and eighty jumps a minute F-Cm.

How Japanese Doctress Accounts for
Rheumatism,

There is little stir in medical circles
here that may make Nagasaki known tc
all the world in this connection, and Pas.
teur and the hypnotizing Partisan will
find themselves deposed as lions in med,
ical society for a young peasant woman
| from a village near here who has q new
| theory and cure for rheumatism. Many
of those short-tempered people, who have
had rheumatism in their knees and govt
in their toes, have declared that the SEN
sation was as if something were gnawing
at their muscles, and this japanese woman
says that it is in reality that. Rheumatism,
| according to her, is a growth of small par
asites under the skin, small insect that
| gnaws and bites and causes the untold
misery and all the twinges of that ailment.
She has had for one of her patients here a
| griEzled and skeptical sea captain, and as
sea captains may always be believed ex-
cept about the sea serpent, his case ought
| to settle it. The mariner was completely
laid up with his ailing knees and the Jap
anese woman was sent for. She claimed
10 see the movement Of the parasite I'M
der the skin, ordered foot-baths of bran
and hot rice brandy, and came another day
with little steel hook and mpped small
white insects out by the dozen. By the
stories, it must be large white flea,
for one of them when brought out
to the surface made spring
and was lost to sight. One of the bystand-
ers felt sting and the next day had sore
place on his arm, and cutting into it, it was
found that the rheumatism bug was there,
burrowing like a tick The regular prac-
titioners are still skepiical about this new
theory Of rheumatism. They put one Of
the insects under microscope and decided
that, by its organism, it never could have
lived under the surface Of the skin away
from the air, and that she must have car
ried it under her finger nail and produced
it at the proper moment. To this the sea
captain enters vigorous denial He saws
that she has taken the insects from his
knees and ankles blythe hundreds now, and
that all have been killed in his sight and
that he is growing better and can feel the
relief after each treatment. A deaf man
was persuaded to 90 to her after suffering
pain in his ears, and she promptly took
dozen or more parasites from one ear. The
idea was so repulsive to the man that he
would not continue the treatment. Those
who believe in the woman and her strange
discovery are anxious to have her go TO
